Just when Wen Zhong received the news that Chen Tong had died in battle and the grain road was intercepted, on the other side, Yang Jian, Yang Ren, Huang Feihu, Huang Tianhua and others had also returned to the front-line camp and returned to Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi glanced at the bloody human head that Huang Tianhua was carrying, and after confirming that his identity was Chen Tong, he directly waved his hand and asked Huang Tianhua to take it down and hand it over to Jiang Ziya for processing.

In this era, which is still the era of slavery, when the two armies are at war and attacking each other, if the enemy has a special identity and a certain status, the victor will generally cut off the enemy's head and bring back the head of the owl as a trophy and a certificate of military merit, and bring it back to the lord and general.

However, Lu Zhi didn't have much interest in this kind of bloody dead head, so he should take it to Jiang Ziya, he liked it, and during this time, he had collected dozens of them...

After Huang Feihu and Huang Tianhua, father and son returned to the camp to hand in the task, they retired, and then Yang Jian and Yang Ren entered the account again, and they also came to return to Lu Zhi.

Yang Jian bowed and said: "Marshal, I and Yang Ren's junior brother have successfully intercepted the enemy's grain road, and let Yang Ren's junior brother burn all the enemy's grain and grass with a 'five fires and seven feathers fan', and now I am here to restore my life." ”

When Lu Zhi heard this, he couldn't help but show a smile on his face: "You two have done a good job, Ben Shuai will let people write down this merit for you in the credit book." ”

"It's hard work, then you can go down and rest for a few days, but don't leave the camp without permission, if you want to return to Xiqi City, you need to report to Ben Shuai to ask for leave first."

Yang Jian and Yang Ren both shook their heads, the two of them didn't have any friends and relatives to visit in Xiqi City, so naturally they didn't need to ask for leave to return to the city.

Especially Yang Ren, due to some changes before, he had become a strange appearance with raw hands in his eye sockets and long eyes in his palms, and his posture looked extremely scary, and he himself knew it, so if it was not necessary, he would not appear in front of people at all, let alone wander around Naxiqi Street.

And Yang Jian glanced at Lu Zhi with some hesitation, and said: "Marshal, the last general didn't feel any fatigue during this trip, so there is no need to rest, if there are any other tasks, please leave the marshal to the last general." ”

Lu Zhi glanced at Yang Jian, and probably knew some of his thoughts in his heart.

It is rumored that Yang Jian is the younger sister of the Emperor of Heaven, the goddess Yao Ji of heaven, who descended to earth and married the mortal Yang Tianyou, which gave birth to Yang Jian, Yang Zhao and Yang Chan.

But in the heavenly rules, the goddess is privately matched with mortals, which is a violation of the heavenly rules, so the bad luck of Yang Jian's family also came, and after the matter of Yao Ji and Yang Tianyou was exposed, Heavenly Court sent heavenly soldiers and generals to arrest them.

In the end, Yang Jian's father Yang Tianyou and his brother Yang Zhaoyu were killed, and his mother Yaoji was also captured by the generals and pressed under the peach mountain.

And now, at the time of the catastrophe of the gods, Yuding Zhenren sent Yang Jian down the mountain to help Xiqi, one is to survive the catastrophe, and the other is to let Yang Jian earn more merits in this catastrophe, so as to reduce the punishment of his mother Yaoji, so that she can be released from under the peach mountain as soon as possible.

So unlike others, Yang Jian came on this trip, in addition to the teacher's life, he also had the purpose of saving his mother, so whenever there was a war, no matter how dangerous it was, he was the first to ask Lu Zhi for his life to fight, in order to accumulate enough merit as soon as possible to rescue his mother under the peach mountain.

After thinking about it, Lu Zhi said: "In that case, then I will bother you to go to the red clay mountain again." ”

"Previously, Ben Shuai sent Li Jing Nezha father and son and Lei Zhenzi to the red clay mountain to ambush the merchant army, but the merchant army in that direction has the four generals of the demon family in charge, but it is difficult to achieve any results, Master Yang, nephew, you can go over."

"Remember, there is no need to force any military exploits, only need to implement the 16-character principle of guerrilla warfare, and attack and encroach on the merchant army.

Yang Jian nodded and replied, "The last general knows." ”

Lu Zhi bowed slightly, he was at ease with Yang Jian, his cultivation was the most among the three generations of disciples such as Nezha, even if he met Wen Zhong and the four generals of the Demon Family, he could retreat with his whole body.

And what Lu Zhi appreciates the most is his calm temperament, he is not arrogant or discouraged when he wins, he has an extraordinary bearing, he is really the style of a general, with his ability, if it were not for Lu Zhi, this Marshal Xiqi may not be unacceptable.

After Yang Jian and Yang Ren withdrew from the tent, several more people came to report to Lu Zhi one after another, and everyone came back, representing a result.

Although many of the results are not big, for Chaoge's 200,000 army, it is not a big deal, but the multi-line flowering and accumulation of small amounts are also not negligible.

Lu Zhi led the generals to this front line, fortified and blocked the attack layer by layer, and on the other hand, he sent more than a dozen small detachments to carry out guerrilla warfare against the merchant army, delaying it to the death in this thousands of miles of mountains and forests wasteland, and the situation of January has slowly eaten up more than 20,000 people of the merchant army.

And with the destruction of bridges and roads in various places by Lu Zhi's order, if the merchant army wants to advance, it must reopen the road and repair the bridge, but at this time, there will be Xiqi soldiers to attack and harass, making it almost impossible for the merchant army to move an inch, like a quagmire.

This time, taking advantage of the slackness of the merchant army, Lu Zhi sent Yang Jian and Yang Ren to go around the back of the merchant army through the trail and cut off their grain and grass supplies.

Although this trick did not cause many casualties to the merchant army, the impact was undoubtedly huge, and it could even affect the outcome of this war!

After all, it has been almost a month since the merchant army entered Xiqi, and the grain and grass materials brought by the army have almost been exhausted, and the merchant army has almost no means to replenish except for the grain and grass supplies transported from the rear.

The mountains and forests within a thousand miles of wasteland have long been ordered by Lu Zhi to clear the wilderness, not to mention the village farmland, and even the prey in the mountains and forests has been hunted in advance by the Xiqi soldiers, and the rest have also rushed to the deep mountains in the depths of Xiqi.

If Wen Zhong didn't want the army under his command to gnaw on the bark to survive, it was estimated that he would have thought about how to send grain and grass again, or retreat.

In fact, after receiving the news that the grain road had been intercepted and the grain and grass supplies were all burned, Wen Zhong immediately ordered to recall the Chaoge soldiers scattered in various places, and prepared to retreat to the rear of the five passes to reorganize first.

As for the idea of letting the rear send supplies up again, he just went through it in his mind and rejected it instantly, and there was no other reason than to seek stability.

Although this time he can personally send people to be the grain officer, and he should be relatively safe, but he is not afraid of 10,000 in everything, just in case.

He thought with his toes, and he could guess that Lu Zhi must be staring at his grain and grass supplies, and if Lu Zhi was asked to burn his grain and grass supplies again this time, then the hundreds of thousands of troops under his command would really run out of food!

Once the army has no food and grass supplies, it may even involve these hundreds of thousands of people and die in this Xiqi mountain forest with him!

After a month's confrontation, he barely figured out a little bit of Lu Zhi's way of using troops, and knew that this person was very good at scheming and all kinds of small tricks.

At first, he didn't care, and even secretly laughed at Lu Zhi, the Marshal of Xiqi, who was really a little child, and used some small tricks that couldn't be put on the table, but today he was eaten by a thousand, tomorrow he was captured by another 800, and the day after tomorrow he was wiped out by 200...

In January, nearly 20,000 people under his command ate Lu Zhi little by little, and it was only then that he realized that he had underestimated Lu Zhi too much.

In addition, this time Lu Zhi made a big move unusually, directly killed his general, intercepted his grain channel, and put his army in an embarrassing situation of almost cutting off cooking, and he suddenly didn't dare to underestimate Lu Zhi's heart at all.

Just thinking that this time because of his conceit, he was tired and fell into such an embarrassing situation, but fortunately, the army under his command was still intact, and he did not suffer any major defeats, and after retreating to the rear to recuperate for a while, he could still enter Xiqi again and fight with Lu Zhi again.

At that time, he will definitely not be careless in the slightest, and he will also guard against Lu Zhi's ghostly tricks...

At that time, with the good ministers and fierce generals under his command, hundreds of thousands of troops, under the crushing of the great momentum, then Lu Zhi and Xiqi's subordinates together are only worth 100,000 soldiers, and the generals are twenty or thirty people, how can they compete with the heavenly soldiers under his command? !
